Reveal cell function with
single-cell resolution

Xdrop is changing how we look at cells and DNA.

Application areas for Xdrop

The Xdrop platform uses microfluidics technology to encapsulate biomolecules in double-emulsion droplets. This approach enables a wide range of single cell functional assays and genomic analyses. Compatible with both flow cytometers and sorters, Xdrop offers a versatile solution for functional and molecular analysis.

Immunotherapy

Explore immune cell function in single cell format assays, including cytokine, granzyme B, and cell killing assays.

Screening

Transform discovery workflows. Effortlessly encapsulate single cell libraries, enhancing the speed of your screening campaigns.

Cell line development

Elevate cell line development workflow. Encapsulate and screen single mammalian cells for enhanced antibody production.

Genomics

Advance genomics workflows with precise single DNA fragment encapsulation. Ideal for insert validation and targeted enrichments.

Enable high-throughput functional analysis in a single cell format with Xdrop technology.

What is Xdrop?

The Xdrop and Xdrop Sort are droplet microfluidics instruments capable of compartmentalizing single cells in droplets. Cells can be cultured and assayed within the droplets, retaining any secreted proteins or molecules.

Uniquely, our platform enables the analysis and sorting of these droplets on flow cytometer and sorters, making it ideal for cell function assays. 

How does Xdrop work?

Xdrop technology specializes in double emulsion droplet generation. These droplets are dispersed in an aqueous phase, ensuring compatibility with flow cytometers.

This significantly broadens the range of assays achievable, enabling the analysis of secreted antibodies, cytokines, and other proteins, all confined within the droplets. It also facilitates the analysis of cell-cell interactions and cell killing assays, empowering the field of immunotherapy

Characterizing the heterogeneity in CAR T cell cytotoxicity with Xdrop

With single-cell assays in droplets, Xdrop reveals the heterogeneity of CAR T cells. In this study we showed that only about 20% kill their targets within 6 hours, while 33% secrete active granzyme B. Such detailed insights into cellular heterogeneity are not achievable with traditional bulk assays.
